Their quality sucks! I bought 3 kits for the 78 super 6 BBD. Bought one at Autozone and 2 at Advanced Auto.

None had the gauge to check the float height! I had one left from a 65 BBD kit.

One had 2 accelerator pumps.

1 kit the bowl top gasket was too wide and had to be trimmed to line up properly. (It did come with 2 exactly alike)

Can't say as I would want to buy more if I have a choice.

iv used napa echlin kits the three times i did my bbd's. only problem i had was an accelerator pump lip fold over and a couple times the emulision tubes that are held in place by two screws (also holds the venturies and pump nozzles iirc) plugged up with some kinda material... looked like a coating off the floats or something just my 0.02

GP Sorenson is now Standard Motor Product's 'bottom of the heap' line.
I've used two of these kits, one for a Holley 2245 (yep didn't work to good 15 years ago, either), and a few years back I purchased one for a Holley 2300 (worked OK, but the Holley Kit was of muuuch better quality...)

LOL...
